Tai's view:

It was a cool pencil. There was a big yellow smiley face rubbery ball at the end of the pencil. It reminded me of myself. The pencil did not seem to fit Matt's personality. He was a dark soul while I carefree, like the pencil.

"Somewhere in the parking lot." My blonde hair friend shrugged his shoulders.

"I think you should give it to me." I told him.

"Why?" He asked me. I only could stare at him in disbelief. Is it not obvious? He hit me with the damn pencil; he should give it to me now.

"Because you never give me anything." I lied. Of course, he has but only on special occasions. "Plus you hit me."

"Oh?" He quirked an eyebrow. I knew some smart-ass remark was in the next sentence. "So…every time you hit me with your soccer ball, do I get to keep it?"

Damn him!

"Of course not!" I shook my head. "Those are accidents more over, your mistakes of notcatching the ball correctly. You hit me with the pencil with evil intentions."

"You hit me with the bloody ball when Iwas walking pass you!"

"I tell you to catch, don't I?" Okay so deep down, pass the hunger pains, there is a bit of evil in me. Not much but a little.

"After you kick the ball."

"You're too slow." Okay there is a lot of evil in me.

"My hands are always full."

"Excuses!" Okay so the evil part of me is not all that far pass the hunger pains.

"They're not excuses, Tai."

"Call them what you want." I blew out my cheeks and crossed my eyes. Okay so the devilish part of me may be in front of the hunger pains. Who is to say how things really lie inside of us?

"What am I going to write with if you take my pencil?" He asked in that monotone voice that girls seem to swoon over.

"You can have my pencil!" I smiled and handed him my writing utensils. Of course, I made some much-needed improvements on this once regular looking school pencil. Half of the erase was coloured in green marker, the other half red. Perfect colours! I took time to strip the yellow paint away from the stem of the pencil and I even took liberty of putting three staples on the side just to make sure everything stayed together. I even had my teeth imprints embedded along the sides. How cool was that?

"Ugh, gross. I don't want a pencil you chewed on!" He handed my lovely pencil back to me. It was then I realized that Matt was not a very cool person. Who in their right mind would turn down an amazing pencil as the one that I now held in my hands?

I watched as my good friend tapped Sora on the shoulder. She swirled in her seat, faintly blushed as she melted. I could only roll my eyes.

"Can I borrow one of your pencils? Tai won't give mine back to me." He is such a liar! Well, okay I will not give it back to him but I offered him a pencil!

"Sure." Sora handed him one of her own, fluttering her eye lashes at him.

"Thank you." Matt winked at her before turning to me with a wide smile. I did the only thing I could think of; I stuck my tongue out at him before the bell rang, dismissing us from our torture.

I slipped out the door into the highly traffic area of the school hallways. Little freshmen were like flies that I had to swat at to get through the jungle of bodies.

"Cool pencil." Mimi walked beside me. I don't know where she came from but it was like magic. One minute some mutate looking freshmen was walking beside me then 'poof', there was an angel.

"Huh?" Oh, what clever words I think up sometimes.

"That pencil, it's so adorable!" Mimi made a high pitch sound that I mistakenly took for a mating call.

"You want?" I smiled and handed her the pencil I took from my best friend. She made the mating call; I had to give her something. I did so with out thinking.

"Really!" She smiled at me and took the smiley pencil from my outstretched hand and suddenly I felt as though I gave up a part of me.
